...Management Skills Learning Contract Rime El Haddi 1) Skill to be developed To improve my coaching and mentoring skill 2) Assessment of current skills level During my bachelor degree, I was the general event coordinator for almost 4 years for an association that does charity called Hand in Hand Association. We had to organize a yearly fundraising event that was considered to be the biggest event at our university. I had to manage, guide, and mentor 11 committees of 11 coordinators; Therefore, I had to support the coordinator and help them achieve our targeted goal which was to raise an amount of fund by the end of the day of the event. Every year, when the D-day got closer, the coordinator including myself started stressing and panicking, hence as their support, I had to organize some teambuilding activities such as paintballing, hiking, and other activities to help them reduce their stress level and to motivate them stay focused on our targeted goal whatever the obstacles are. Therefore, I can proudly say that at the end of every fundraising event, we were able to raise the amount of money that we had as a goal and sometimes even exceed it. The reason why I chose to work on this interpersonal skill is to help me in my future career because I want to be an HR consultant, and as we all know, a good consultant must master the skill of coaching and mentoring. In a rating out of 10, I would give myself a 5 point in this skill because I believe that I still...

...Name: Institution: Analytical Essay on Game-Playing Game studies involve the practical analysis and studying of a game, its subculture, players, as well as, its wider culture from variety of various academic viewpoints. Games are played as source of entertainment and hobby. However, the analysis of how it works to achieve this is important. Games are analyzed using concepts from anthropology, sociology, psychology and literature. This paper aims at providing a detailed cogent analysis of video games as a game preferred by many, especially kids. The essay will also answer some obvious questions such as how the game is played, how the players interact with the game, how the players interact with one another and the relationship of the game to real life. Virtually, all video games are defined by their various limitations. Like any other games, the most open video games have incentives and boundaries that help in directing the actions of the player. The boundaries are the essential rules defining the game. Rules aid in the provision of the objectives and structure dictating the basic form or nature of the game and ensuring the provision of policies regarding minor issues within the game’s framework. The other important element of the game is for each player to have a given degree of control within the limitation of the game dictated by the game’s formative reset. The rules must be agreed upon by all the people participating in the game. A balance of boundaries and freedom serves...

Training Needs Analysis: Training Needs Analysis (TNA) is a systematic gathering of data to find out the training needs of participants. There are many benefits to carrying out a TNA prior to the training programme design stage. One such benefit is to assess the existing knowledge, skills and attitudes of participants, as well as identifying the gaps that need to be filled in order for them to reach their desired knowledge, skills and attitudes. Another benefit is that this information will inform the trainer of the Aim & Objectives of the training programme. And finally, in doing a TNA ensures that the Trainer and the trainee are more likely to achieve positive results from carrying out the training. However, one must bare in mind that there are some challenges to carrying out a TNA. For instance, employees might be concerned that their supervisor might have access to what they write on their forms, so it is...

...report has been submitted. There are two parts to this assignment. The first Part A consists of a pre-activity self-rating of graduate capabilities. The ratings are intended to be your perception of your own capabilities. This perception should draw on your prior experiences, including your university or other studies, paid employment or volunteer work, and from sport, hobbies and other interests. The self-assessment will not be graded, nor will it be shared with others in your class. Part A serves the purpose of allowing the student to focus on graduate capabilities and reflective points to be considered while collecting material and writing up the final reflective journal. Part A is due in your tutorial class in Week 4, Thursday 28th August. Part B, consists of the self assessment post activity audit of graduate capabilities and a 2,000 word reflective journal report. The self assessment post activity audit will not be marked, but will act as support for your findings in the final report. The final report provides your analysis and reflections about the process of self-assessment that you have undertaken and analyse the evidence you have gathered. Part B is due after week 13 by midnight Sunday 16th November via Turnitin. A hard copy will need to be submitted to BESS by Friday 14th November at 4:30pm. introduction For many aspects of life, accurate self-assessment is an important and valuable skill.

...and outside the confines of a laboratory. This approach is especially essential in severe brain injury, where there are limited treatments to enhance motor recovery and the natural history is poorly understood. Specific Aim 1 is to automate the determination of type and quality of upper body movements made by subjects recovering from severe brain injury. We will record movements of subjects recovering from severe brain injury using video and functional activity monitors (FAMs; accelerometer-gyroscopes; Wagenaar et al., 2011) over two-to-three-day research hospital admissions. We will also record healthy controls with video and FAMs while they mimic the most common movements of the clinical subjects. 1A) We will...

...Technology’s Impact on Employee Training Introduction Technology impacts every aspect of our lives in the 21st century. In our fast-paced professional environments, we continually seek efficiencies with our time management skills and training methods that meet the real time needs of both the organization and the individuals that require that these learning objectives are implemented into their daily jobs. In the past, on-the-job training offered the most effective avenue for transferring knowledge. However, with the introduction of technology in the United States during the 20th century, ensuring quality standards were implemented meant that organizations had to re-evaluate their training methodologies. Additionally, laws implemented to advocate for workers also brought about changes in the approach to employee training. With the onset of technology as a helpmeet for understanding the needs of an organization as well as offering training that helps grow the business, employers began implementing these new technological learning opportunities when offering employees both company-centric and legally required training. Noe (2010) tell us that, “Recognizing the value of human, social, and structural knowledge, many companies are attempting to become learning organizations and to manage knowledge in order to develop better products and improve customer service.” Therefore, as companies proceed into the 21st century and modify their approach to training on a global scale...

...Literature Review on Autism Wilfredo Garcia Table of Contents Abstract 3 Autism 4 Videogames and young people with Developmental disorders 10 Funding of Applied Behavior Analysis 11 Executive function in individuals with sub threshold Autism traits 12 Conclusion 14 References 15 Abstract The increasing number of individuals with Learning Disabilities (LD) and psychiatric disorders presents a key challenge to their assessment and treatment in mental health services. Children and young people with LD are more likely to experience mental health than the general population (Allington-Smith, 2006). There is a close relationship between autism spectrum disorder and learning disability. Epidemiological studies suggest that autism is more frequent in people with LD, nearly 40% of people with LD also have autism on the other hand, and nearly 70% of people with autism also have LD (La Mafa, 2004). The strong association between autism and LD (Bradley, 2004) also associates an increased risk of mental health problems. It is suggested that adults with LD and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may experience symptoms of anxiety at a greater level than the general population; however, this requires more conclusive evidence in relation to the prevalence of anxiety disorders in adults with LD and autism. ...
